Harrison Comp VCA Compressor
The Harrison Comp VCA Compressor is a 500 Series dynamics processor that brings Harrison’s classic feed-forward compressor design into a modern modular format. Originally developed to meet broadcast demands for reliable level control, the Harrison Comp soon found its place in music production, prized for both its transparent levelling and its ability to add punch and character when driven harder.
With a THAT 2180 VCA chip at its core, the Harrison Comp delivers outstanding analogue performance, offering program-dependent attack and a continuously variable release. It can operate as a subtle leveller on vocals and guitars with just a few dB of gain reduction, or as a bold, vibe-heavy compressor on drums, bass, and other sources. Compact, versatile, and musical, the Harrison Comp makes the distinctive Harrison sound accessible in 500 Series format.
